The best Mobbin alternatives in 2026, with free options, current pricing, and what each tool does better. Every number checked against each tool's live site.
Disclaimer: We build Mobbin.
With that said, the widely accepted Mobbin alternatives are Refero, Page Flows, and ScreensDesign. We'll get more into this below – but before that, note that most other listicles run on stale data. Three of the tools commonly recommended no longer exist, and most of the prices quoted are wrong. In this article, every number below comes from each tool's live site (date attached).

The alternatives
Refero
A curated library with structured metadata agents read before they look at the image. They give you a lifetime plan and the Refero Skill. Full comparison: Mobbin vs Refero.
Page Flows
Annotated video journeys with step-by-step notes. They show Android and email flows too, at a lower price. Full comparison: Mobbin vs Page Flows.
ScreensDesign
Session recordings of top-chart iOS apps, from first screen through the paywall and past the purchase. They show revenue estimates on every app, and an AI screen generator works from those references. iOS-first; not built for web work.
NicelyDone
A SaaS-web library. Web-only; the overlap with Mobbin's web coverage is large. Free plan with 12 screen previews.
Dribbble and Behance
These are a different category: portfolios and concept work. Dribbble offers single screens, while Behance offers long-form case studies. Free, enormous, and good for visual inspiration and finding designers. Nothing on them has to have shipped; everything else on this comparison page shows shipped products.
Free Mobbin alternatives
Fully free: Dribbble and Behance.
Free tiers: Refero (~3% of the library), NicelyDone (12 screen previews), Mobbin (limited free plan).
Trial: Page Flows (3 days).
Students: Mobbin Student Pro, $5 a month.
Both Mobbin and Refero also have a free tier.
What happened to Screenlane, UI Sources, and UX Archive?
Half the tools in older "sites like Mobbin" listicles no longer exist as separate products. Screenlane merged into Page Flows in July 2024; the domain now redirects there. UI Sources was acquired by ScreensDesign and redirects there now. UX Archive, the free iOS flow library, 404s when we tried to visit in October 2026; an unrelated product now uses the name. Comparison sites still list it.
Is Mobbin worth it?
If you're in product design and look up real references every week, $10 a month gets you the largest record of shipped product design: 620,000+ screens and 153,400+ flows across web and iOS as of October 2026, with animations and eight years of app history going back to 2018. Deep Search reads what you mean and finds text inside screenshots, an MCP server lets your AI agents search the same library, and design skills for agents are live (install in Claude; more apps soon).
When Mobbin isn't the right fit
You need Android or email references. Page Flows covers both.
You want revenue data next to every design. ScreensDesign attaches revenue estimates to each iOS app.
You learn best from annotated video walkthroughs. Page Flows gives you these.
You want a lifetime plan. Refero has one.
You want concept inspiration, for free. Dribbble and Behance.
